Lesson 1 of 6 · Money worry is not the same as being bad with money
The one sentence
A plan that names the moment works better than a general intention to think about yourself more kindly.
The move
Separating the worry from the sums
5 minutes or less
- Draw a line down a page. Worry on one side, money on the other.
- On the money side write only facts. What is owed, to whom, and when.
- On the worry side write the thoughts. What if, and what it means about you.
- They need different tools and different times of day. Mixing them is what makes both worse.

If you cannot face the money side today, do the worry side and leave the other blank. Writing half of it is not failing at it.
Write the one sentence
